ABSTRACT

A thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) material is provided. The TADF material has a form in which an electron donating group and an electron withdrawing group are connected to benzene and the electron withdrawing group is position in an ortho position to the electron donating group.

TECHNICAL FIELD

Example embodiments of the present invention relate to compounds for an organic light emitting diode and more specifically to thermally activated delayed fluorescence materials as the compounds for the organic light emitting diode.

BACKGROUND ART

OLED (organic light emitting device) is a self-emitting device, and has advantages of fast response time, excellent brightness, driving voltage and response rate characteristics, and implementing multi-color, as well as wide viewing angle and excellent contrast.

General organic light emitting diode may include an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer interposed between the anode and the cathode. The organic layer may include a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer and the like. When a voltage is applied between the anode and the cathode, holes injected from the anode are moved to the light emitting layer via the hole transport layer, and electrons injected from the cathode moves to the light emitting layer via the electron transport layer. Carriers, such as the holes and electrons, recombine in the light emitting layer to generate excitons, and the excitons transition to a ground state to emit light.

The excitons generated when the organic light emitting diode is driven are stochastically in a singlet state of 25% and a triplet state of 75%. In the case of a fluorescent light emitting material, only excitons in the singlet state which is 25% of total excitons participate in luminescence, and the internal quantum efficiency remains at maximum 25%. In order to improve these properties, iridium or platinum complexes facilitating emitting from the triplet excitons can be used, and thereby allowing excellent quantum efficiency characteristics. However, these materials are expensive, and their applications are limited due to the instability of the blue light emitting material.

In order to solve this problem, recently, a thermally activated delayed fluorescent organic material are being developed. The thermally activated delayed fluorescent organic material has an energy difference of 0.3 eV or less between the singlet state and the triplet state of excitons. In this case, the up-conversion from the triplet state into the singlet state is allowed by heat corresponding to room temperature or device driving temperature, and the theoretical quantum efficiency of nearly 100% can be achieved.

DISCLOSURE Technical Problem

However, it is known that the actual quantum efficiency of currently developed thermally activated delayed fluorescent organic materials is very different from the theoretical quantum efficiency and still needs to be improved.

Technical Solution

It is an object of example embodiments of the present invention to provide a thermally activated delayed fluorescent material and an organic light emitting diode including the same, which can improve quantum efficiency as the transition from a triplet state to a single state can be more efficiently performed.

In some example embodiments, a thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) material is provided. The TADF material has a form in which an electron donating group and an electron withdrawing group are connected to benzene and the electron withdrawing group is position in an ortho position to the electron donating group.

Advantageous Effects

According to example embodiments of the present invention, as the compound introduced with the electron donating group and the electron withdrawing group at the ortho positions of the benzene ring can have reduced energy difference between the singlet and triplet excited states, up-conversion of the triplet excited states to the singlet excited states through reverse intersystem crossing by heat at room temperature or device operating temperature can easily occurs, which may result in delayed fluorescence.

Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescent (TADF) Material

The following Chemical Formula 1 represents a compound according to one exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

In the Chemical Formula 1,

-   -   R_(EDG) may be an electron donating group,     -   R_(EWG) may be an electron withdrawing group,     -   R₅ to R₈ may be, independently of each other, a hydrogen atom, a         heavy hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C9 alkyl         group, a substituted or unsubstituted C5-C30 cycloalkyl group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C6-C30 aryl group, a substituted or         unsubstituted C6-C30 alkylaryl group, a substituted or         unsubstituted C6-C30 aralkyl group, a substituted or         unsubstituted C3-C30 heteroaryl group, a substituted or         unsubstituted aryloxy group, a substituted or unsubstituted         arylamine group, a substituted or unsubstituted fused arylamine         group, a substituted or unsubstituted phosphine or phosphine         oxide group, a substituted or unsubstituted thiol group, a         substituted or unsubstituted sulfoxide or sulfone group.

The electron donating group may be a substituted or unsubstituted amine group, and the electron withdrawing group may be a substituted or unsubstituted triazine group.

The compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 may be a light emitting material. Specifically, it may be a thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) material exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence. More specifically, it can be used as a light emitting dopant in an organic light emitting device. However, it is not limited to this, and it may be used in any layer in the organic light emitting device, or may also be used as a host material in the light emitting layer.

The compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 has the form in which the electron donating group and the electron withdrawing group are bonded to benzene, and the electron withdrawing group is positioned in an adjacent position (ortho position) to the electron donating group. Thus, through the effect of steric hindrance by introducing the electron withdrawing group and the electron withdrawing group at ortho positions of benzene to each other, it is possible to control the overlapping of HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) and LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital) and reduce the difference between the singlet energy (S1) and the triplet energy (T1). Specifically, as the compound introduced with the electron withdrawing group and the electron withdrawing group at ortho positions of the benzene ring has a minimized energy difference between the singlet excited state and the triplet excited state (less than 0.3 eV), up-conversion of the triplet excited state to the singlet excited state through reverse intersystem crossing by heat at room temperature or device operating temperature can easily occurs, which may result in delayed fluorescence.

Organic Light Emitting Diode

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an organic light emitting diode according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1 , an organic light emitting diode includes an anode 10, a cathode 70, a light emitting layer 40 disposed between the two electrodes, a hole conduction layer 20 disposed between the anode 10 and the light emitting layer 40, and an electron conduction layer 50 disposed between the light emitting layer 40 and the cathode 70. The hole conduction layer 20 may include a hole transport layer 25 for transporting holes and a hole injection layer 23 for facilitating injection of holes. The electron conduction layer 50 may include an electron transport layer 55 for transporting electrons and an electron injection layer 53 for facilitating injection of electrons. In addition, a hole blocking layer (not shown) may be disposed between the light emitting layer 40 and the electron transporting layer 55. Further, an electron blocking layer (not shown) may be disposed between the light emitting layer 40 and the hole transporting layer 25. However, it is not limited thereto, and the electron transport layer 55 may serve as the hole blocking layer, or the hole transport layer 25 may serve as the electron blocking layer.

When a forward bias is applied to the organic light emitting diode, holes are injected into the light emitting layer 40 from the anode 10, and electrons are injected into the light emitting layer 40 from the cathode 70. Electrons and holes injected into the light emitting layer 40 are combined to form excitons, and light is emitted while the excitons transition to the ground state.

The light emitting layer 40 may be made of a single light emitting material, or may include a host material and a dopant material. The single light emitting material or the light emitting dopant material may be a compound represented by any one of the above-described Chemical Formulas 1 to 12 and Compounds 1 to 92, specifically, a thermally activated delayed fluorescent material. In this case, the efficiency of the organic light emitting diode can be greatly improved. The thermally activated delayed fluorescent material has a form in which an electron donating group and an electron withdrawing group are connected to benzene and the electron withdrawing group is positioned in an ortho position to the electron donating group. Thus, the difference between singlet energy and triplet energy can be reduced to less than 0.3 eV. The thermally activated delayed fluorescent material can more efficiently facilitate transition from the triplet excited state to the singlet excited state by heat (at room temperature or element operating temperature), thereby improving the quantum efficiency. In addition, various combinations of the red, green, and blue luminescent colors can be realized by the appropriate introduction of the electron donating group and the electron withdrawing group.

The host material may be selected from the group consisting of mCP (N,N-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene), Alq3, CBP (4,4′-N,N′-dicarbazole-biphenyl), 9,10-di(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracene, TPBI (1,3,5-tris(N-phenylbenzimidazole-2-yl)benzene), TBADN (3-tert-butyl-9,10-di(naphth-2-yl)anthracene), E3 (see the following formula), and BeBq2 (see the following formula).

Meanwhile, the hole injection layer 23 and/or the hole transport layer 25 are layers having a HOMO level between the work function level of the anode 10 and the HOMO level of the light emitting layer 40, and has the function of enhancing the injection or transport efficiency of holes from the anode 10 to the light emitting layer 40. The electron injection layer 53 and/or the electron transport layer 55 are layers having a LUMO level between the work function level of the cathode 70 and the LUMO level of the light emitting layer 40, and has the function of enhancing the injection or transport efficiency of electrons from the cathode 70 to the light emitting layer 40.

The anode 10 may be a conductive metal oxide, a metal, a metal alloy, or a carbon material. The conductive metal oxide may be at least one selected from the group consisting of indium tin oxide (ITO), fluorine tin oxide (FTO), antimony tin oxide (ATO), SnO2, ZnO, or any combination thereof. The metal or metal alloy suitable as the anode 10 may be Au or CuI. The carbon material may be graphite, graphene, or carbon nanotubes.

The hole injecting layer 23 or the hole transporting layer 25 may include a material commonly used as a hole transporting material, and one layer may have a different hole transporting materials or a different hole transporting material layers. The hole transporting material may be, for example, mCP (N,N-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene); PEDOT:PSS (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrenesulfonate); NPD (N,N′-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N′-diphenylbenzidine); N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-di(3-methylphenyl)-4,4′-diaminobiphenyl (TPD); N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-dinaphthyl-4,4′-diaminobiphenyl; N,N,N′,N′-tetra-p-tolyl-4,4′-diaminobiphenyl; N,N,N′,N′-tetraphenyl-4,4′-diaminobiphenyl; porphyrin compound derivatives such as copper (H) 1,10,15,20-tetraphenyl-21H,23H-porphyrin and the like; TAPC (1,1-bis[4-[N,N′-di(p-tolyl)amino]phenyl]cyclohexane); triarylamine derivatives such as N,N,N-tri(p-tolyl)amine and 4,4′,4′-tris[N-(3-methylphenyl)-N-phenylamino]triphenylamine; carbazole derivatives such as N-phenylcarbazole and polyvinylcarbazole; phthalocyanine derivatives such as metal-free phthalocyanine and copper phthalocyanine; starburst amine derivatives; enamine stilbene derivatives; derivatives of aromatic tertiary amine and styrylamine compounds; polysilane; and the like. Such a hole transporting material may also serve as the electron blocking layer.

The hole blocking layer serves to prevent triplet excitons or holes from diffusing toward the cathode 70, and may be arbitrarily selected from known hole blocking materials. For example, oxadiazole derivatives, triazole derivatives, phenanthroline derivatives and the like can be used.

The electron transporting layer 55 may be formed of a material selected from the group consisting of TSPO1 (diphenylphosphine oxide-4-(triphenylsilyl)phenyl), tris(8-quinolinolate) aluminum (Alq3), 2,5-diarylsilole derivative (PyPySPyPy), perfluorinated compound (PF-6P).

The electron injection layer 53 may be, for example, LiF, NaCl, CsF, Li2O, BaO, BaF2, or Liq (lithium quinolate).

The cathode 70 is a conductive film having a lower work function than the anode 70 and is made of a metal such as aluminum, magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, indium, yttrium, lithium, silver, lead, cesium, or the like, or a combination of two or more species among those metals.

The anode 10 and the cathode 70 may be formed using a sputtering method, a vapor deposition method, or an ion beam deposition method. The hole injecting layer 23, the hole transporting layer 25, the light emitting layer 40, the hole blocking layer, the electron transporting layer 55 and the electron injecting layer 53 are, regardless of each other, formed by evaporation or coating methods such as spraying, spin coating, dipping, printing, doctor blading, or electrophoresis.

The organic light emitting diode may be disposed on a substrate (not shown), which may be disposed below the anode 10 or above the cathode 70. In other words, the anode 10 may be formed on the substrate before the cathode 70, or the cathode 70 may be formed before the anode 10.

The substrate may be a light-transmissive substrate as a flat plate member, in which case the substrate may be glass; ceramics; or a polymer material such as polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyimide (PI), polypropylene (PP). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the substrate may be a metal substrate capable of light reflection.

Table 1 below shows the values calculated by the molecular calculation technique for Compound 1 prepared according to Synthesis Example 1, Comparative Compound A, and Comparative Compound B. Molecular calculations were performed using the Gaussian 09 program through the B3LYP method according to density functional theory on a 6-31 G* basis set.

TABLE 1 Sample Structural Formula ¹⁾B₅ ²⁾S₁ ³⁾T₁ ⁴⁾ΔE_(ST) ⁵⁾HOMO ⁶⁾LUMO Compound (ortho)

3.49 eV 2.86 eV 2.79 eV 8.86 eV −5.31 eV −1.81 eV Comparative Compound A (meta)

Referring to Table 1, Comparative Compound A or B is in a form similar to Compound 1, but carbazole as an electron donating group and diphenyltriazine as an electron withdrawing group are in meta position in Comparative Compound A and in para position in Comparative Compound B. Calculation result shows that, as the position of the carbazole and diphenyltriazine were shifted from ortho to meta, and from metal to para, the singlet energy gradually increased and the triplet energy gradually decreased. As a result, the smallest energy different was found between the singlet state and the triplet state in the ortho form. The smaller energy difference between the singlet state and the triplet state is, the easier the Reverse Intersystem Crossing (RISC) is, and the better the thermally activated delay fluorescence property can be obtained.

FIG. 2 shows the molecular orbital distribution of Compound 1 prepared according to Synthesis Example 1, Comparative Compound A and Comparative Compound B. The molecular orbital distribution was calculated using the Gaussian 09 program through the B3LYP method according to density functional theory with a 6-31 G* basis set.

In order to show the fluorescence property effectively, the overlapping between HOMO and LUMO should exist at a certain level. As a result of calculation. HOMO and LUMO of ortho, meta and para forms are overlapped on benzene which is the central connecting unit, the fluorescence property of the ortho-form material was expected to be similar to other-form materials. These results indicate that the ortho-form material can up-convert the triplet exciton formed during electroluminescence to the singlet exciton more effectively through RISC than the meta- and para-form materials, and the singlet exciton can show effective fluorescent light emitting.
